A rant..

How the hell can this be a simulation game when you get screeching tires á Hollywood going 40mph and spinning around in a slight left turn?. If this is how the Nissan handles they should recall all units due to risk of fatal crashes. And at certain points not being able to do a turn and still have the animation doing a full whatever-direction-turn with the steering wheel. This was by far the most atrocious game demo i've ever played.

I never play car games, GRID being the only one, but i had high hopes for this GT demo, seeing as its been hyped as a franchise and IGN saying PD have outdone themselves. But damn.. i did 2 laps, quit, deleted the game and the "maybe"-purchase of GT5 is now at a "hell-the-fudge-no!"-level.

..end rant.

Someone's not used to playing sim racers...

You have a disease, its called lack of gore/AK47 syndrome.

I normally hate racers, the GT demo got me interested, I mean it's pretty fun. It took me awhile to get used to the controls of the game though. I did get Motorstorm with my PS3 and I hated that, I for one was on the fence about GT 5 and now I am defiantly going to pick it up.

For me was phenomenal.

Missing a lot of things still but the driving sensation is amazing.

GT5 will be incredible.

THIS IS NOT GRAN TURISMO 5, IT IS GRAN TURISMO ACADEMY, IT IS DIFFERENT.

How many times am I going to have to repeat myself on these threads.
This game probably won't reflect much on what Gran Turismo 5 is going to be, don't judge that game based on this.

have you... drove a tuned car before?

Gran Turismo Academy is the event, it have nothing to do with gaming.

this game IS GT 5 Demo.

Maybe you're not used to driving in a game with most the driving assists disabled.

No, its not....

It was created for GT Academy, and only uses some features found in Gran Turismo 5, it DOES NOT reflect on the final product.
